More Information
Refatting agents are components used to replenish lipids lost from the skin or hair due to washing, serving a conditioning function. Cleansing products such as facial cleansers, body washes, and shampoos, while removing oil from the skin, fragments of the stratum corneum, or residues of cosmetics, may also lead to over-cleansing, leaving the skin exposed. Over washing the hair not only dulls its shine but also leads to split ends, dryness, and potential damage to the hair follicles.
Refatting agents can provide a barrier function for the skin, helping to prevent external irritants in facial cleansers or body washes while also moisturizing and smoothing, further promoting the skin's absorption of nutrients. When used in shampoos, they can improve hair conditioning and increase its shine.
Refatting agents include:
•Highly branched saturated or unsaturated alkanes
•Fatty acid esters
•Polyol esters
•Glycerolides
